postop 5 days pain on right side
Weighted to long replied to blondebomb's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I only had pain on the right side when drank too fast and too much. 2 weeks out for me and I'm still trying to figure out how to go slow!! -
I am feeling great in body and mind but my spirit is starting to feel a little down. Within a few day of my surgery I dropped 20 pounds then nothing!! I know that we all seem to stall after the initial loss but I have actually gained 4 lbs back in the last couple of days inspite of the fact that I have increased my physical activity and severely decreased my eating!!! I'm starting to get concerned that I'm doing something wrong!!

June Gastric Sleevers Out there
Weighted to long replied to skjerstad's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had to check the name on this post to make sure I didn't write it skerstad as your experience is mirroring my own!!! I was sleeved on June 27th and have just started pureed foods yesterday, I am having a little trouble eating slow and getting enough Fluid...I too noticed that my aches and pains have diminished and I am wondering if this is from the lack of gluten in my diet? Best of luck to you, keep me posted with your progress!! skjerstad -

I turned 49 on June 3rd and had my surgery on June 27th...I smoked 2 packs a day, had out of control diabetes and was 100lbs overweight!!! After 2 weeks, I have lost 16 lbs, my diabetes is near perfect and I haven't smoked in 16 days...I am so darn happy, I looking forward to being 50 and the healthiest I've ever been in my life!!! I cant wait for you ladies to join me on this journey -

I had my surgery an 6/27 and can finally eat a mashed egg for breakfast!! My liquid breakfast was one of my Protein shakes that I would Water down because they are too sweet for my taste. Its only for a short time but I am glad to have other options!! Hang in there, you'll be eating pureed foods before you know it!!! -
Good morning!!! 2 weeks post op and I am feeling great!! This morning I drank my protein, walked 3 miles then ate an egg for breakfast all before 9am...loving my new routine and way of life <3

Oh dear God did I have pain!!! I was fine immediately after my surgery then at day 9 I had this incredible burning pain every time I would sit or stand, it drove me crazy!!! Today I am 14 days post op and I have to tell you that the burning pain is nearly gone, its just a dull ache now!!!

Today is 2 weeks since my surgery and the start of pureed foods!!! Todays lunch was Gerber beef and veggies, with a pinch of salt it wasn't to bad, LOL

I am so sorry that you are disappointed in your weight loss, I think that 24lbs is amazing and am hoping that I have the same success as you are having!!!

Welcome back!!! A good doctor and a great program goes a long way in our success...We CAN do this!!! -
Ok, so not only have I quit eating on June 27th but I have also quit smoking!!! It has been 13 days since my last cigarette and I have found today to be the most difficult as I am finding myself wanting to munch!! I am trying gum to keep my mouth busy and am about to take a walk...I refuse to eat or smoke, I CAN DO THIS!!!!

This afternoon while grocery shopping I could feel a sugar low coming on while I was checking out. I am still on liquids only but wanting to raise my sugar (and maybe cheat just a little) I opened a box of pretzel crackers and hummus and promptly shoved 4 crackers and 2 teaspoons of hummus in my face....I am feeling stuffed like a pig but my sugar is back to normal!! Grrrrrrrrrr :-/

Today I learned that if you drink your protein drink too fast you will no longer need a laxative...LOL

June sleevers, check-in!

My searing pain is down to a burning pain today, LOL!!! I was concerned about this pain because I didn't have it the 1st week post op and felt as if I had injured myself by not taking it easy enough towards the end of the first week. I haven't taken any pain meds because of constipation for the last 5 days and I have been relatively comfortable except for the burning pain that I only have when I am getting up or down. So far today I'm feeling great, if I can remember to stay out of the garden, no bending or squatting, get in a couple of half hour walks...its going to be a wonderful day!!! -

I was sleeved on 6/27, I was just wondering how bad everyones pain was 1 week from surgery at the hole the stomach was removed from. I have a bad searing pain unless I press hard on the lump under the incision site. Other than this pain, I am doing great!!! I'm never hungry, I eat and drink with a spoon to slow down my drinking because drinking too fast as I have found this can be quite uncomfortable.
